IIS Problems: Autorization request...

Hi,
I'm trying to install IIS on my laptop whit Win XP PRO.
The installation end normally, but when I try to access the "localhost",
an IE require me User Name and Password.

The local Web is configured for Anonymous access and the IIS user for
Anonymous connection seems to be correctly configured.

I've tryed to install and unistall many time the IIS, and all times the
User used from IIS service was deleted...

How can I try other than format disk?

Thanks.

Should not be needed!

Make sure that your NTFS rights for inetpub\wwwroot\
include IUSR_[yourcomputre] (read/execute rights)
If you use ASP.NET,
the aspnet account should be listed as well.

The right for IUSR and IWAM are set as "read/execute".
I don't use ASP.NET at the moment and the initial script for IIS are
write in the old ASP language.

localhost continue to require Username and password.
With my Username/password the initial page of IIS are displayed.

In the local site, Anonymous Access with IUSR_computername User are set.
Is also set The last flag in the windows "Autenticazione integrata di
windows" in italian, but this flag should work if Anonymous access fail.


thanks.
